ABSTRACT
In this thesis, we study thel-adic cohomology of the dual Lubin-Tate tower by using the exterior power of a πL-divisible OL-module to relate it to the cohomology of
the Lubin-Tate tower. By using a result of Harris-Taylor on the cohomology of
the Lubin-Tate tower, we show that the supercuspidal part of the cohomology of the dual Lubin-Tate tower realizes the local Langlands and the Jacquet-Langlands

INTRODUCTION
Generalizing earlier work of Lubin-Tate ([LT66]) and Drinfeld ([Dri74]),
Rapoport-Zink ([RZ96]) constructed moduli spaces of deformations ofp-divisible groups for data of type EL and PEL. These spaces, which are now known as Rapoport-Zink
spaces, are local models of Shimura varieties. Kottwitz (cf. [Rap95]) conjectured
that thel-adic cohomology of basic Rapoport-Zink spaces should partly realize the local Langlands and the Jacquet-Langlands correspondences.
A particularly well-known example of a Rapoport-Zink space is the Lubin-Tate
tower. Let p be an odd prime, L be a finite extension of Qp with uniformizer πL
and residue field kL = Fq, and letG1,h−1be the isoclinic πL-divisible OL-module
over Fp of dimension 1 and height h ≥ 2. Rapoport-Zink ([RZ96]) showed that,
in this special case, the functor of deformations of G1,h−1 with a quasi-isogeny is representable by a formal scheme LTh, which is non-canonically isomorphic to
`
i∈ZSpfOL˘[[t1, . . . ,th−1]], whereOL˘ is the ring of integers of ˘L = L·QLnrp. We get
a tower of étale covers over the rigid analytic generic fiber ofLThby trivializing the
Tate module of the universalπL-divisibleOL-module. LetLThnbe the étale cover that trivializes the Tate module of the universalπL-divisibleOL-module mod Γn, where
Γnis the subgroup ofGLh(OL)consisting of matrices congruent toIhmod πnL. The
projective systemLTh∞ = {LThn}nis known as the Lubin-Tate tower.
Let C be the completion of an algebraic closure of ˘L. After base change to C, the Lubin-Tate tower has actions by the three groups GLh(L), D× (where D =
End(G1,h−1) ⊗Zp Qp is the central division algebra over L of invariant 1/h) and
WL (the Weil group of L). By using global methods involving Shimura varieties,
Harris-Taylor ([HT01]) showed that the supercuspidal part of the cohomology of
the Lubin-Tate tower realizes the local Langlands correspondence for GLh and
the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence for D×, up to some twists, thus verifying Kottwitz’s conjecture in this particular case.
If, in the above moduli problem, we replace G1,h−1 by Gh−1,1, the isoclinic πL
by the groupsGLh(L), E×(whereE = End(Gh−1,1)⊗ZpQp) andWL.
The aim of this paper is to understand the cohomology of the dual Lubin-Tate tower
Mh∞by relating it to the cohomology of the Lubin-Tate towerLTh∞. We will show that the cohomology of the dual Lubin-Tate tower also realizes the Jacquet-Langlands
and the local Langlands correspondences, up to certain twists.
For the rest of the introduction, we will slightly abuse notation, and not distinguish
between the Lubin-Tate towerLTh∞, which is defined over ˘L, and its base change to C. We will also do the same for the dual Lubin-Tate tower Mh∞. Although some of the statements still hold even without base change, for simplicity, the reader may
assume (for the rest of the introduction) that we are always working with the base
change toC.
As usual, letlbe an odd prime different fromp. We consider the functor
Hci(Mh∞): RepE× → Rep(GLh(L)×WL) ρ7→ HomE×(Hi
c(M
∞
h ,Ql), ρ).
The following are the main results:
Theorem A. Forπ ∈Cusp(GLh(L)),
Hch−1(Mh∞)cusp(JL−1(π)) =π ⊗rec(π∨⊗ (χπ◦det)⊗ (| · | ◦det)
h−1
2 )(h−1),
where χπ is the central character of π, Hch−1(Mh∞)cusp is the supercuspidal part
of Hch−1(Mh∞), rec is the local Langlands correspondence and JL is the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence.
Theorem A is a consequence of the following Theorem which expresses the
co-homology of the dual Lubin-Tate tower Mh∞ in terms of the cohomology of the Lubin-Tate towerLTh∞. For convenience, we will fix certain embeddings of the divi-sion algebrasD×andE×intoGLh(Lh)(see Section 4.1), whereLhis the unramified
extension of degreehoverL.
Theorem B. Define
θ :D× → E× ψ :GLh(L)→ GLh(L)
Let θ∗Hci(LTh∞,Ql) be the pushforward of the representation Hci(LT

To prove Theorem B, we first define a map fromLTh∞to Mh∞.
Since the dual ofG1,h−1 isGh−1,1, the Serre dual of a πL-divisible OL-module can
be used to define a map
∨: LTh∞ → Mh∞.
However, this map is notWL-equivariant. For example, the Tate module of the Serre
dual of(L/OL)h isOh
L(1), and notO h
L. As such, while the duality map∨could be
used to study the cohomology ofMh∞as aE× ×GLh(L)-representation, the action
ofWL appears to be difficult to understand.
Instead, we will use the exterior power Vr
, which was introduced by Pink and studied by Hedayatzadeh in [Hed10], [Hed13] and [Hed14] for certainπL-divisible
OL-modules. The idea of using the exterior power has previously been explored by Chen in [Che13] where she used the top exterior power to define a determinant map
from Rapoport-Zink spaces to a tower of dimension 0 rigid analytic spaces. In this
thesis, however, we will consider the h−1 exterior power, and not the top exterior power. AsVh−1
G1,h−1 ≈ Gh−1,1, using the h−1 exterior power, we can define a map
h−1 ^
:LTh∞ → Mh∞. Unlike the duality map ∨, the map Vh−1
is WL-equivariant, and the other group
actions can be understood as well. Under the mapVh−1
, the action of φ ∈ D× on LTh∞ corresponds to the action ofθ(φ) on Mh∞, and the action of g ∈ GLh(L) on
LTh∞corresponds to the action ofψ(g)on Mh∞.
Before proving Theorem B, it is useful to first look at the level 0 case. Using
Grothendieck-Messing theory and the fact that at level 0, the duality map∨induces an isomorphism on the connected components, we can show that the same is true for
the mapVh−1
of heightm, and define(Mhn)m similarly. By the above, we can identify(LTh0)0with
(Mh0)0using the exterior power mapVh−1.
For simplicity, we will first specialize to the case whereh−1 is coprime top(q−1). Under this condition, we can check that K = ker(θ) is trivial, the map θ gives a bijection from O×
D to O
×
E, and θ maps a uniformizer of D
× to an element of E×
with normalized valuation h−1. The fact that θ gives a bijection from O× D toO
×
E
shows thatVh−1
induces a bijection from the connected components of (LThn)0 to the connected components of(Mhn)0. Using this, and the fact that(LThn)0and(Mhn)0 are both étale covers of (LTh0)0 of the same degree, we deduce thatVh−1 induces an isomorphism from (LThn)0 to (Mhn)0. By considering the group actions, it is then clear that Vh−1 induces an isomorphism from
(LThn)m to (Mhn)(h−1)m. With
the above knowledge of the geometry of Vh−1 : LT∞
h → M
∞
h , we can then prove
Theorem B in this special case.
Now, let us look at the general case. Unlike in the previous case where h−1 is coprime top(q−1), the mapVh−1
no longer induces a bijection from the connected
components of (LThn)0to the connected components of (Mhn)0. However, it is still true that each connected component of LThn is mapped isomorphically onto some connected component of Mhn. Letd = (h−1,q−1) and e = vp(h−1). We will
separately consider the cases where
(i) d ,1 ande =0,
(ii) d =1 ande ,0.
It should then be clear how to handle the general case.
First, we recall that(LThn)0 hasqn−1(q−1) connected components and a result of Strauch ([Str06]) tells us that the action of φ ∈ O×D on the connected components depends on det(φ)mod(1 + πLnOL). We would like to understand the map on the connected components induced by Vh−1. To do so, we study the map θ
0,n :
(OL/πnLOL)× → (OL/πnLOL)× induced by θ : O×
D → O
×
E under the det mod(1+ πn
LOL) map. In fact,θ0,nis simply the map x7→ x h−1.
In case (i), the kernelK of the mapθ: O× D → O
×
E is cyclic of orderdand this maps
isomorphically to ker(θ0,n)under the det mod(1+πnLOL)map. Hence, if we write
Ynfor the image of the mapVh−1: LThn→ Mhn, then we have
ψ∗
Hci(Yn,Ql) θ∗* ,
Hci(LThn,Ql)
K +

Let Eθ be the subgroup of E× generated by Im(θ) and O×
Lh, and let Xn be the
subspace`
m∈Z(M n
h)(h−1)m of M n
h. It is easy to check that, in fact,E
θ = {ϕ ∈ E× :
(h−1)|val(ϕ)}. Using thatEθ/Im(θ)is a finite abelian group, and thatXnis equal
to the disjoint union
Xn =
a
ϕ∈Eθ/Im(θ)
ϕ(Yn),
we can show that Hci(Xn,Ql) IndE
θ
θ(D×)(Hci(Yn,Ql)). Similarly, E×/Eθ is finite
abelian (in fact cyclic of orderd), and
Mhn= a
ϕ∈E×/Eθ
ϕ(Xn),
so we have Hci(Mhn,Ql) IndE × Eθ(H
i
c(Xn,Ql)). Putting these together gives us
Theorem B for case (i).
We now look at case (ii). In this case, the kernel of the map θ : D× → E× is K = µpe(L), the group of pe roots of unity in L. Unlike in the previous case, K
does not surject onto ker(θ0,n) under the det mod(1+πLnOL) map. But if we let
Kn = 1+πnL−eeLOL ≤ D×, then the det mod(1+ πnLOL)map gives a surjection of
K×Knonto ker(θ0,n), and we can show that

Hci(LTh∞,Ql).
Piecing together the above, we obtain Theorem B for case (ii).
Using Theorem B, and applying Frobenius reciprocity, we see that the following

Although the above diagram only gives usHci(Mh∞)[ρ] as aψ(GLh(L))-representation,
we can use the duality map to understand theGLh(L)-action. Alternatively, in the
special case wherep(q−1)is coprime toh−1, the groupGLh(L)is generated by the
subgroupψ(GLh(L))and the elementπL ∈GLh(L), so we just need to understand
the action ofπL, but the action ofπLIh ∈GLh(L)onMh∞corresponds to the action
ofπ−L1 ∈ E×.
Finally, we observe thatθ∗ResEθ(×D×) ρ
andψ∗ResψGLh(GLh(L)(L))π can be written as twists ofρandπrespectively by their central characters. This is useful since both the local Langlands and the Jacquet-Langlands correspondences are compatible with
twists. Using the theorem of Harris-Taylor on the cohomology of the Lubin-Tate
tower, we can then prove Theorem A.
We start by introducing some background material on πL-divisible OL-modules in
Chapter 2. In particular, we recall the Serre dual of aπL-divisibleOL-module and
introduce the exterior power for πL-divisible OL-modules of dimension 1, whose
existence has been proven in [Hed10].
In Chapter 3, we introduce moduli spaces of certainπL-divisibleOL-modules, which
includes, as special cases, the Lubin-Tate and the dual Lubin-Tate towers. We also
state the well known result of Harris-Taylor on the cohomology of the Lubin-Tate
tower.
We collect some useful results on the endomorphism algebras and on representation
theory in Chapter 4. We will describe in this chapter embeddings ofD×andE×into GLh(Lh), and study properties of the mapsθandψ.
In Chapter 5, we use the exterior power introduced in Chapter 2 to define a map
And finally, in Chapter 6, we study the geometry of the dual Lubin-Tate tower, and

2.1 Ramified Witt vectors, DieudonnéOL-modules andOL-displays
Letpbe an odd prime,Lbe a finite extension ofQpwith uniformizerπL and residue field kL = Fq. For an OL algebra R, the ring of ramified Witt vectorsWOL(R) (cf.
[Haz80]) isWOL(R)= RN with the uniqueOL-algebra structure such that

(x0,x1,x2, . . .) 7→ xq

qn−1
1 +· · ·+π
n Lxn
areOL algebra homomorphisms for alln≥ 0,
2. OL-algebra homomorphisms R → S induce OL-algebra homomorphisms WOL(R) →WOL(S).
There is an endomorphism ofWOL(R), defined bywn(σ(x)) = wn+1(x), called the
Frobenius endomorphism. In fact,σ is a homomorphism ofOL-algebras.
Let k ⊇ kL be a perfect field of characteristic p. ThenWOL(k) OLD⊗W(kL)W(k),
whereW(k) =WZp(k)is the usual ring of Witt vectors ofk. It is a complete discrete valuation ring with residue field k and uniformizer πL. In particular,WOL(Fp) is
isomorphic to the ring of integers OL˘ of ˘L, where ˘L = L·QLnrp is the completion of
the maximal unramified extension of L.
We now introduce Dieudonné OL-modules and OL-displays. A Dieudonné OL -module over k is a free WOL(k)-module of finite rank, together with two maps F
and V such that F is σ-linear, and V is σ−1-linear, and FV = πL = V F. There
is an equivalence of categories between the category of πL-divisible formal OL
-modules over k and the category of Dieudonné OL-modules over k such thatV is topologically nilpotent in theπL-adic topology (cf. [Ahs11], Proposition 2.2.3 and
Theorem 5.3.8).
For aπL-divisibleOL-moduleG, we will denote its covariant DieudonnéOL-module by D(G). Under this equivalence of categories,
ht(G)= rankWO
L(k) D(G), dim(G) =dimk
D(G)
Generalizing earlier work of Zink ([Zin02]) and Lau ([Lau08]), Ahsendorf ([Ahs11])
introduced the notion of an OL-display. An OL-display over an OL-algebra R is a quadruple P = (P,Q,F,V−1) with P a finitely generated projective WOL(R)
-module, Q ⊂ P a submodule and F : P → P andV−1 : Q → P Frobenius linear maps, which satisfy some additional conditions.
IfπLis nilpotent inR, then there is an equivalence of categories between the category
of nilpotentOL-displays overRand the category of formalπL-divisibleOL-modules overR(cf. [Ahs11], Theorem 5.3.8).
2.2 IsoclinicπL-divisibleOL-modules and their endomorphism algebras
We now introduce certain isoclinic πL-divisible OL-modules which will be useful later. Suppose m, n are coprime non-negative integers. We shall write Gm,n for
theπL-divisibleOL-module overFpwith covariant DieudonnéOL-moduleD(Gm,n)
having basis{b0,b1, . . . ,bm+n−1}such that
F bi = bi+n, V bi = bi+m and b(m+n)+i = πLbi.
Gm,nis an isoclinicπL-divisibleOL-module of dimensionmand heightm+n.
In particular, D(G1,h−1)has a basis{e0, . . . ,eh−1}such that
V ei= ei+1 (0≤ i ≤ h−2), V eh−1= πLe0,
andD(Gh−1,1)has a basis{f0, . . . , fh−1}such that
F fi = fi−1 (1≤ i ≤ h−1), F f0= πLfh−1.
LetODm,n =End(Gm,n)be the endomorphism ring ofGm,nand letDm,n= ODm,n⊗Zp
Qp = End(Gm,n) ⊗Zp Qp be the endomorphism algebra of Gm,n. The following
description of the endomorphism ring ODm,n is a straightforward generalization of [JO99, Lemma 5.4]. We include a proof here for lack of a suitable reference.
Lemma 2.2.1. Leta,b ∈Zbe such thatam+bn =1, and let OLm+n =WOL(Fm+n) be the ring of integers of Lm+n, the unramified extension of degreem+n over L. Then
ODm,n =End(Gm,n) OLm+n[πm,n],
where λ · πm,n = πm,n · σb−a(λ) for λ ∈ OLm+n, and σ is the Frobenius map. λ ∈ OLm+n acts on b0 via multiplication by λ, and πm,n is a uniformizer of the
Proof. Using the above basis{b0,b1, . . . ,bm+n−1}ofD(Gm,n), we easily check that
πm,n(bi) =bi+1 (0≤ i ≤ h−2), πm,n(bh−1) = πLb0,
is an element of End(Gm,n).
Suppose φ ∈ End(Gm,n) is such that φ(b0) = λb0 for some λ ∈ OL˘. Note that
(FbVa)i(b0) = bi, so
φ(bi) = φ((FbVa)ib0) = (FbVa)iφ(b0) = (FbVa)i(λb0)= σ(b−a)i(λ)bi.
In particular,
λb0= φ(b0) = φ(π−L1bm+n)= σ(b−a)(m+n)(λ)π−L1bm+n= σ(b−a)(m+n)(λ)b0,
which shows that σ(b−a)(m+n)(λ) = λ. If we let a0 = a+n and b0 = b−m, then a0m+b0n= 1, so similarly, we haveσ(b0−a0)(m+n)(λ) = λ. But (b−a,b0−a0) = 1 since(n+a)(b−a)−a(b0−a0) = am+bn=1, soσm+n(λ) = λandλ ∈ OLm+n. The fact that such an element does indeed lie in End(Gm,n) is again easy to check. We shall denote this element of End(Gm+n)byλ.
Now, let φ be an arbitrary element of End(Gm,n). Then φ(b0) = Pm+n−1
i=0 αibi for some αi ∈ OL˘. A similar argument to that above shows, in fact, that αi ∈ OLm+n. Clearly, φ(b0) −Pm+n−1
i=0 αiπim,n(b0) = 0, from which it follows that φ = Pm+n−1
i=0 αiπim,n. This proves that End(Gm,n) OLm+n[πm,n].
To show thatOLm+n[πm,n] is a discrete valuation ring with uniformizerπm,n, we first note that OLm+n[πm,n] is a subring of the division ring Lm+n(πm,n). Now, define a
mapv: Lm+n(πm,n) →Z∪ {∞}by
α0+α1πm,n+· · ·+αm+n−1πmm,n+n−17→min(m+n)vLm+n(αi)+i: 0 ≤ i < m+n .
It is easy to check thatvis a valuation onLm+n(πm,n). Since
OLm+n[πm,n]= {φ∈ Lm+n(πm,n) :v(φ) ≥ 0},
andv(πm,n) =1, we have shown that End(Gm,n) = OLm+n[πm,n] is a discrete valuation ring with uniformizerπm,n.
Let us introduce some notation for the cases(m,n)= (1,h−1)and(m,n) = (h−1,1). We write
OD =OD1,h−1 =End(G1,h−1), D = D1,h−1= End(G1,h−1) ⊗ZpQp, OE = ODh−1,1 = End(Gh−1,1), E = Dh−1,1 =End(Gh−1,1)⊗Zp Qp.
Also let$(respectively$0) be the uniformizer ofOD(respectivelyOE) as in Lemma 2.2.1.
2.3 Serre dual and exterior powers ofπL-divisibleOL-modules
Let G be a πL-divisible OL-module over a scheme S. The dual πL-divisible OL -moduleG∨is
0→ (G[πL])∨→ (G[πL2])∨→ (G[π3L])∨→ · · ·
where(G[πiL])∨=HomS(G[πiL],Gm)is the Cartier dual ofG[πiL]. We have
ht(G) =dim(G)+dim(G∨) =ht(G∨).
If S = Speck for some perfect fieldk of characteristic p, thenG∨ has Dieudonné
OL-module
D(G∨) D(G)∨= HomWO
L(k)(D(G),WOL(k))
with(Fl)(v)= σ(l(Vv)),(V l)(v)= σ−1(l(Fv)), forv ∈ D(G),l ∈D(G)∨. We will now look at the exterior power ofπL-divisibleOL-modules, which has been
shown to exist by Hedayatzadeh in [Hed10] in certain situations. For G and H
πL-divisibleOL-modules over a base scheme S, we will write Alt
OL
S (G
r,H)for the
group of alternatingOL-multilinear morphisms fromGr toH.
Definition 2.3.1. [Hed10, Definition 5.3.3] LetG,G0beπL-divisible OL-modules
over a scheme S, with an alternating OL-multilinear morphism λ : Gr → G0such that for allπL-divisibleOL-modulesH overS, the induced morphism

Theorem 2.3.2. [Hed10, Theorem 9.2.36] LetSbe a locally NoetherianOL-scheme andGbe aπL-divisibleOL-module of heighthand dimension at most1. Then there exists a πL-divisible OL-module VrG over S of height

In the cases that Sis the spectrum of a perfect field of char p > 2, or the spectrum of a local ArtinOL-algebra with residue charp> 2, we can write down the exterior power in terms of its DieudonnéOL-module or itsOL-display.

ThenF is representable by a formal schemeMd
h, which is formally locally of finite type overSpfOL˘. Ford =1, the formal schemeM1

Let M0d h

G for the universalπL-divisibleOL-module onMd
h, andTπL
Gfor its Tate module. LetΓnbe the subgroup ofGLh(OL)consisting of matrices congruent toIh modπnL.
Then we have a finite étale coverMnd h

DefineM∞d h

Recall from Section 2.2 thatGd,h−dis an isoclinicπL-divisibleOL-module of height
hand dimd. Any twoπL-divisibleOL-modules with the same Newton polygon are
isogenous, so in the definition ofMnd

The groups Dd,h−d = End(Gd,h−d) ⊗ZpQp andGLh(L) act onM

3.2 Results on the Lubin-Tate tower
A well known result of Harris-Taylor tells us that thel-adic cohomology (cf. [Ber93]) ofLTh∞×L˘Crealizes the local Langlands and the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence. To be precise, let us consider the functor
Hci(LTh∞) : RepD× →Rep(GLh(L)×WL) ρ7→HomD×(Hi
c(LT
∞
h ×L˘ C,Ql), ρ),
and let [Hc(LTh∞)(ρ)] denote the virtual representation(−1)h−1Pih=−01(−1)i[Hci(LTh∞)(ρ)].
Theorem 3.2.1. [HT01, Theorem VII.1.3] Let π be an irreducible supercuspidal representation ofGLh(L). Then
[Hc(LTh∞)(JL−1(π))]=[π⊗rec(π∨⊗ (| · | ◦det) h−1
2 )(h−1)]
in the Grothendieck group, where r ec is the local Langlands correspondence and
Theorem 3.2.2. [Fal02, Section 6] Fori, h−1,
Hci(LTh∞)cusp(ρ) =0
for any ρ∈RepD×, where Hci(LTh∞)cusp is the supercuspidal part ofHci(LTh∞).
An immediate corollary of Theorems 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 is:
Corollary 3.2.3. Letπ be an irreducible supercuspidal representation ofGLh(L). Then
Hch−1(LTh∞)cusp(JL−1(π)) = π⊗rec(π∨⊗(| · | ◦det)

Lemma 4.1.1. (a) For anyφ∈ D×,
Nrd(φ) =det(ιD(φ))
where Nrd is the reduced norm of the central division algebra D over L. In particular, we havedet(ιD(φ)) ∈ L×. Furthermore,
val(φ) =vL(det(ιD(φ)))
wherevalis the normalized valuation on the division algebra D, andvL is the usual normalizedπL-adic valuation on L.
(b) The result in (a) holds withDreplaced byE, andιD replaced byιE.
Proof. We shall prove (a). The proof of (b) is almost identical. The map
D× Lh→ Mh(Lh) (φ, µ)7→ µ·ιD(φ)
isL-bilinear, so we have an L-linear map
f : D⊗L Lh → Mh(Lh) φ⊗ µ7→ µ·ιD(φ).
Let us show that f is injective. Suppose f(φ⊗ µ) = Ih. Then µ· ιD(φ) = Ih, so ιD(φ) = µ−1Ih. But the only scalar matrices in Im(ιD) are of the form µIh where µ∈ L. Hence,φ⊗ µ= µ−1⊗ µ= 1, proving injectivity.
Since the dimensions of D⊗ Lh and Mh(Lh) overLh are both equal to h2, f is an
isomorphism. Hence
Nrd(φ) =det(f(φ⊗1))= det(ιD(φ)),
proving the first assertion.
The second part follows immediately since val(φ) = vL(Nrd(φ)).
We shall view D× and E× as subgroups ofGLh(Lh) using the embeddingsιD and ιE. Define the maps
θ :D× → E× ψ :GLh(L)→ GLh(L)
φ7→ (detφ)(φ−1)T, g7→ (detg)(g−1)T.
Lemma 4.1.2. Letd = (h−1,q−1)ande= vp(h−1). The map θ0 :O×D → OE×
φ7→ (detφ)(φ−1)T
(a) has kernel
ker(θ0) = µh−1(OL) = µpcd(OL) = {ζ ∈ OL : ζp cd
=1}
of orderpcd, wherecis the maximum integer≤ esuch thatOL contains thepc
roots of unity. IfLis unramified overQp, thenc= 0andker(θ0) = µd(OL)has orderd.
(b) image
Im(θ0) = {ϕ ∈ O×E : det(ϕ) ∈(OL×)h−1}
which is a normal subgroup ofO× E.
Proof.
(a) Letφ∈ker(θ0). Since
detφ must be a (h−1) root of unity in OL. By Hensel’s lemma, any root of xh−pe1 −1 = 0 in
Fq lifts uniquely to a root in OL. SinceF×q is cyclic of order
q−1, and(h−1,q−1) = d, the mapx 7→ xh−pe d1 is an automorphism ofF× q, so
µh−1
pe (Fp) = µd(Fp), which shows that µh−1(OL) = µp
ed(OL)= µpcd(OL). So φ∈ker(θ0) ⇒detφ ∈ µpcd(OL)⇒ (φ−1)T ∈ µpcd(OL) ⇒φ ∈ µpcd(OL).
IfLis unramified overQp, thenLdoes not contain any non-trivialp-th roots of
unity, soc= 0 andµh−1(OL)= µd(OL).
(b) Since det(θ0(φ)) = (detφ)h−1, and detφ ∈ OL×, the inclusion
Im(θ0) ⊆ {ϕ ∈ OE× : det(ϕ) ∈ (O×L)h−1}
is clear. To show the reverse inclusion, we need to show that any ϕsatisfying det(ϕ) ∈ (OL×)h−1lies in Im(θ0). Letγ ∈ O×L be a(h−1)root of det(ϕ). Then
θ(γ(ϕT)−1
) =det(γ(ϕT)−1)γ−1ϕ= γh−1(detϕ)−1ϕ= ϕ.
This proves the reverse inclusion.
Proposition 4.1.3. Letc,d,ebe as in Lemma 4.1.2. The map
θ: D× → E×
φ7→ (detφ)(φ−1)T
has
(a) kernel
ker(θ) = µpcd(OL)= {ζ ∈ OL :ζp cd
= 1}
of orderpcd, and
(b) image
Im(θ) = {ϕ∈ E× : (h−1)|val(ϕ), det(ϕ) ∈ (L×)h−1}.
Let Eθ be the subgroup of E× generated by the subgroups O×
Lh and Im(θ), i.e.
Eθ =hO×
Lh,Im(θ)i. Then
(d) the cokernel
coker(θ)= E
×
Im(θ) Eθ Im(θ) ×
E× Eθ
with
Eθ Im(θ)
OE×
Im(θ0)
and E
×
Eθ Z
(h−1)Z.
Proof. Parts (a) and (b) follow almost immediately from Lemma 4.1.2.
(c) It is clear thatEθ ⊆ {ϕ ∈E× : (h−1)|val(ϕ)}since
det(θ(φ)) = (detφ)h−1
andO×Lh ⊆ O×E.
Let us prove the reverse inclusion. It suffices to show that O× E ⊆ E
θ. An
arbitrary element ofO×
E is of the form
ϕ = a0+a1$0+a2($0)2+· · ·+ah−1($0)h−1,
witha0∈ O×
Lhandai ∈ OLhfor alli.
We observe that the determinant map on D×, when restricted to the subgroup
OL× h ≤ D
×
, is equal to the norm map NLh/L : O×Lh → OL×. Since Lh is an
unramified extension ofL, the map NLh/L :OL×h → OL×is surjective.
Now, given any ϕ ∈ O×
E, since detϕ ∈ L
× by Lemma 4.1.1, we must have
detϕ ∈ O×
L. By surjectivity of the map NLh/L : O
×
Lh → O
×
L, we can find
u ∈ O× Lh ≤ D
× such that det(u) =det(ϕ). Then
θ(u(ϕT)−1) =det(u(ϕT)−1)u−1ϕ=u−1ϕ,
sou−1ϕ ∈ Eθand hence ϕ∈ Eθ. This proves the reverse inclusion.
(d) Define
E× Im(θ) →
Eθ Im(θ) ×
E× Eθ
ϕIm(θ) 7→ (ϕ$−bIm(θ), $bEθ)
wherebis any integer congruent to val(ϕ)mod(h−1). Since$h−1∈Im(θ) ⊆
Eθ, it is clear that this is well defined and is an homomorphism. By (iii), Eθ = {ϕ ∈ E× :(h−1)|val(ϕ)}, so the valuation map gives an isomorphism
E× Eθ
Z
from which surjectivity of the above map follows easily. For injectivity, we note
that
$b∈
Eθ = {ϕ ∈E× : (h−1)|val(ϕ)} ⇒(h−1)|b⇒$b∈Im(θ). Hence
ϕ$−b∈Im(θ)and$b ∈Eθ ⇒ϕ$−b ∈Im(θ)and$b ∈Im(θ) ⇒ϕ ∈Im(θ).
Now we consider the map
Eθ O
×
E
Im(θ0)
ϕ 7→ ϕ$−val(ϕ)Im(θ0)
Then
ϕ ∈Eθ lies in the kernel
⇔ϕ$−val(ϕ) ∈Im(θ0)
⇔ det(ϕ$−val(ϕ)) ∈(OL×)h−1 (since(h−1)|val(ϕ) ⇒det($−val(ϕ)) ∈ (L×)h−1)
⇔ det(ϕ) ∈(L×)h−1 ⇔ϕ ∈Im(θ), so
Eθ Im(θ)

Proposition 4.1.4. Letc,d,ebe as in Lemma 4.1.2, and let eL be the ramification degree of L over Qp. θ0 : OD× → OE× induces a map θ0,n : (OL/πnLOL)× → (OL/πnLOL)× making the following diagram

commute. θ0,nis the map
θ0,n :(OL/πnLOL)× → (OL/πnLOL)×
x 7→ xh−1.
(a) Im(θ0)is the preimage ofIm(θ0,n)under thedet mod(1+πnLOL)map,
(b) thedet mod(1+πnLOL)map induces an isomorphism
coker(θ0) =
O× E
Im(θ0)
−→ (OL/π n LOL)
×
Im(θ0,n) =
coker(θ0,n),
(c) ker(θ0,n) can be written as a direct product ker(θ0,n) = Kn,01 × K0n,2, where K0n,2 = (1+πnL−eeLOL)/(1+πnLOL), and thedet mod(1+πnLOL)map restricts to an isomorphism
ker(θ0)
det mod(1+πnLOL) −−−−−−−−−−−−−−→
K0n,1.
In particular, ife =0, then thedet mod(1+πnLOL)map restricts to an isomor-phism fromker(θ0)toker(θ0,n).
Proof. To show thatθ0 :OD× → OE× induces a map
θ0,n:
OL/πnLOL× → OL/πLnOL×
making the above diagram commute, we need to check that ifφ ∈ O×
D satisfies
detφ≡1 mod (1+πnLOL),
then
detθ0(φ)≡ 1 mod (1+πLnOL).
But this is clear since det(θ0(φ)) = (detφ)h−1. The fact thatθ0,nis the(h−1)power map is also immediate from this.
Forn1 ≥ n2, consider the map
coker(θ0,n1)=
OL/πn1
L OL
×
(OL/πnL1OL)×
h−1
OL/πn2
L OL
×
(OL/πnL2OL)×
h−1 =coker(θ0,n2).
Supposea ∈ O×
L is a (h−1)power modπ n2
L . By Hensel’s lemma, forn2> 2eeL, a
is also a (h−1) power modπn1
L , so the above map is a bijection for all n1 ≥ n2 >
2eeL. So, for all n1,n2 > 2eeL, we have
coker(θ0,n1)
=
coker(θ0,n2)
, and hence
ker(θ0,n1)
=
ker(θ0,n2) .
Now, let us assume that n > 2eeL. Sincen > 2eeL ⇔ 2(n−eeL) > n, it is clear
that
We note that
ker(θ0,n
0)
=
ker(θ0,n)
for alln
0 ≥ n ⇒
ker(θ0,n0)
1+πLn0−eeLOL
=
ker(θ0,n)
1+πnL−eeLOL
for alln0 ≥ n.
Hence for anya0+· · ·+an−eeL−1πLn−eeL−1 ∈ker(θ0,n), there exists a uniquean−eeL ∈ OL/πLsuch thata0+· · ·+an−eeL−1πLn−eeL−1+an−eeLπLn−eeL ∈ker(θ0,n+1). Therefore, the set of elements a0+· · ·+ an−eeL−1πLn−eeL−1 ∈ ker(θ0,n) are given precisely by truncations of elements in ker(θ0). LetKn,01 =ker(θ0)/(1+πnLOL) ≤ ker(θ0,n). We have shown that ker(θ0,n) = Kn,01Kn,02. AsKn,01∩Kn,02= {1}, this is a direct product, proving (c).
To prove (b), we first show that
coker(θ0) det

OL× (O×L)h−1. Consider the commutative diagram

We have an isomorphism

Therefore

(a) then follows immediately from this.
Results analogous to those in Lemma 4.1.2 and Propositions 4.1.3, 4.1.4 also hold
for the maps

4.2 Representation theory
We start this section with a useful result that expresses the cohomology of certain
rigid analytic spaces in terms of the cohomology of a subspace.
Proposition 4.2.1. Let X be a rigid analytic space with an action of the group G, and letY be a subspace of X on which the subgroup H ofGacts. Suppose
(i) H is normal inG,
(ii) GH is a finite abelian group,
(iii) X is the disjoint union
X = a
g∈GH
g(Y).
Then
Hci(X,Ql) IndGH H i
Proof. We first prove the result in the case that GH is cyclic of orderm, generated by g0 ∈G. In this case, (iii) becomes
X =Y tg0(Y)t · · · tg0m−1(Y).
So we have
Hci(X,Ql) m−1 M
j=0
Hci(Y,Ql)
asQl-vector spaces. Letxk be the element of
Lm−1
j=0 H
i
c(Y,Ql)withk-th coordinate
equal to xand which is 0 everywhere else. We pick the above isomorphism so that
g0· xk = xk+1, 0 ≤ k < m−1.
Define
f : IndGH Hci(Y,Ql)→ Hci(X,Ql) m−1 M
j=0
Hci(Y,Ql)
gokx7→ xk.
We will show that this is an isomorphism of representations.
Letg ∈G. Then we can write
g= hg0l withh∈ H, 0 ≤ l ≤ m−1.
So it suffices to show that f is compatible with both the actions ofh ∈H and ofg0.
For 0 ≤ k < m−1,
g0· (g0kx) =g0k+1x
f
7−→ xk+1 =g0· xk =g0· f(g0kx)
and sinceg0m ∈ H,
g0·(g0m−1x)= g00(g0mx)
f
7−→ (g0m · x)0= g0m · x0=g0·xm−1 =g0· f(g0m−1x).
And forh∈ H, we havehg0k =g0kh0for someh0∈ H sinceH is normal inG, so
h·(g0kx)= g0k(h0·x) 7−→f (h0·x)k =g0k·(h0·x)0 = (g0kh0)·x0= (hg0k)·x0= h·xk = h·f(g0kx).
So f is an isomorphism ofG-representations.
Now, for the general case where GH is finite abelian, we can write GH as a direct product GH = G1
H × G2
H × · · · × Gn
eachGj
H is finite cyclic. LetHj =G1· · ·Gj. Since G
H is abelian,gj1Gj2 =Gj2gj1 for allgj1 ∈ Gj1, 1 ≤ j1,j2 ≤ n, so Hj is a subgroup ofG and Hj−1 is normal in Hj. Furthermore, we haveHn= Gand Hj−Hj1 = G1
···Gj G1···Gj−1
Gj
(G1···Gj−1)∩Gj = Gj
H. DefineXj
recursively by X0 =Y and
Xj =
a
gj∈Hj−Hj
1
gj(Xj−1).
(iii) implies that the above is indeed a disjoint union for all 1 ≤ j ≤ n, and that X = Xn. Applying the previous case repeatedly shows that
Hci(X,Ql) IndHnHn−1IndHn−Hn−12· · ·IndHH10 Hci(Y,Ql) IndGH H i
c(Y,Ql).
Next, we include a result that will be needed later in Section 6.3 to show that the supercuspidal part of the cohomology of the dual Lubin-Tate tower realizes the local
Langlands and the Jacquet-Langlands correspondences. This result is useful as local
Langlands and Jacquet-Langlands both behave well with respect to twists.

THE DUALITY MAP AND THE EXTERIOR POWER MAP ON
MODULI SPACES
5.1 Definitions of the duality map and the exterior power map
In this section, we will use the Serre dual and the exterior power of a πL-divisible OL-module to define maps from LTh∞ toMh∞.
We start with the Serre dual. Note that G∨m,n Gm,n, so G∨1,h−1 Gh−1,1 has dimensionh−1 and heighth. Let us fix such an isomorphism. The dual of aπL
-divisibleOL-moduleX has Tate module(TπLX)
∨
(1). In particular, the Tate module of the dual of (OL/πnLOL)h is equal toOLh(1). Over ˘L(ζp∞), we haveOh
L(1) O h L
since ˘L(ζp∞)contains thep∞ roots of unity.
Definition 5.1.1. Define∨: LTh∞×L˘ L˘(ζp∞)→ M∞

whereα∨ζ
pn is given by the composition
TπLX∨−−−−−−→ (TπLX)∨(1)−−−−−−→ O Lh(1) −−−−−−→ O Lh.
Let us now look at the exterior power. Recall thatVh−1
G1,h−1 Gh−1,1. We will fix such an isomorphism.

5.2 Properties of the exterior power map and group actions
In order to study the cohomology of the dual Lubin-Tate tower using the exterior
power mapVh−1
, it is necessary to first understand how the group actions behave
with respect toVh−1 .
Recall from Section 4.1 that we have embeddings of D× and E× in GLh(Lh). We
shall view D× andE× as subgroups ofGLh(Lh) using these embeddings. We also
recall the maps
θ :D× → E× ψ :GLh(L)→ GLh(L)
φ7→ (detφ)(φ−1)T, g7→ (detg)(g−1)T.
Proposition 5.2.1. The mapVh−1 :LT∞
h → M
∞
h is
(a) D×-equivariant if we letD× act on Mh∞ viaθ,
(b) GLh(L)-equivariant if we letGLh(L)act on Mh∞ viaψ,
(c) WL-equivariant.
Proof.
(a) Supposeφ ∈ D× is given by
φei = h−1 X
j=0
αjiej.
Then

h−1 ^

ei =(−1)iφe0∧φe1∧ · · · ∧φei−1∧φei+1∧ · · · ∧φeh−1

j=0
αj,h−1ej
=
h−1 X
k=0
βk(e0∧e1∧ · · · ∧ek−1∧ek+1∧ · · · ∧eh−1)
for some βk ∈ Lh. To write down an expression for βk, it is helpful to first
introduce the order-preserving bijections
bl : {0,1, . . . ,l−1,l+1, . . . ,h−1} → {1,2, . . . ,h−1}
j 7→
Forτ ∈Sh−1, letτik =b−k1◦τ◦bi. Then βk = (−1)i
X
τ∈Sh−1
sgn(τ)ατik(0),0· · ·ατik(i−1),i−1ατik(i+1),i+1· · ·ατik(h−1),h−1.
So the coefficient of ˜ek in
Vh−1
φ ˜
ei is given by
(−1)i+kdet(φwith row and column containing αk,ideleted)
=Ck,i, the cofactor of the elementak,iofφ.
So
h−1 ^ φ = * . . . . . . . ,
C0,0 C0,1 · · · C0,h−1 C1,0 C1,1 · · · C1,h−1
... ... . . . ...
Ch−1,0 Ch−1,1 · · · Ch−1,h−1
+ / / / / / / /
-= (detφ)(φ−1)T.
(b) It suffices to prove the proposition forg ∈GLh(L)∩Math(OL). For suchg, it
acts onLTh∞ by
(X, β, α) 7→ (Y,q◦ β, α)
whereY,q, αare as defined in Section 3.1. Recall thatYrig,qrigandαrig(which corresponds toαrig :OLh −→ TπLY
rig)satisfy the commutative diagram
(L/OL)h α
rig // g Xrig qrig
(L/OL)h α
rig
/
/Yrig = Xrig
αrig(ker(g)).
Applying the functorVh−1
to the above diagram gives
Vh−1
(L/OL)h
Vh−1αrig
//
Vh−1g
Vh−1 Xrig
Vh−1qrig
Vh−1(
L/OL)h
Vh−1αrig
//
Vh−1 Yrig.
By an argument similar to that in (a), the following diagram commutes:
OLh
ψ(g)=(detg)(g−1)T
//Vh−1Oh L
Vh−1g
OLh
//
SinceVh−1αrigcorresponds to(Vh−1α)rig, using the above 2 diagrams, we get the commutative diagram
Oh L
Vh−1α
//
ψ(g)
Tp
Vh−1 X
Vh−1q
Oh L
Vh−1α
//Tp
Vh−1 Y.
Henceψ(g)acts on Mh∞ by

X,

β, h−1 ^
α+
-7→*
,
h−1 ^
Y,
h−1 ^
q◦ h−1 ^
β, h−1 ^

as required.
(c) Letw ∈WL. By the universal property of the exterior power, we have
F(Vh−1G
1,h−1)/Fp =
h−1 ^
FG
1,h−1/Fp,
and
Tp* ,
h−1 ^
X+
-=
h−1 ^
TpX.
The first equality shows that (Vh−1β
)w = Vh−1βw, and the second gives
(Vh−1α)w =Vh−1αw, so the mapVh−1: LT∞
h → M
∞
h isWL-equivariant.
Proposition 5.2.1 tells us that the exterior power mapVh−1
isWL-equivariant. Unlike
Vh−1however, the duality map∨is not
WL-equivariant, one of the reasons being that
the Tate module of the dual of(L/OL)hisOh
L(1). As such, it is difficult to understand
theWL-action on Mh∞ by considering the duality map. However, the duality map∨
can still be used to study the cohomology of Mh∞as aE××GLh(L)-representation,
and hence can be used to show that the supercuspidal part of the cohomology ofMh∞ in the middle degree realizes the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence up to certain

THE GEOMETRY AND COHOMOLOGY OF THE DUAL
LUBIN-TATE TOWER
6.1 Geometry of the dual Lubin-Tate tower
Before looking at the tower, it is helpful to first understand the level 0 situation. Let us writeLThfor the formal schemeM1
h, andMhforM h−1
h .
Proposition 6.1.1. The mapVh−1
:LTh → Mhinduces an isomorphism h−1
^
: (LTh)0→ (Mh)0.
Proof. By Theorem 3.1.1, we have a non-canonical isomorphism
(LTh)0≈SpfOL˘[[t1, . . . ,th−1]],
which shows, by considering the duality map∨, that
(Mh)0≈SpfOL˘[[T1, . . . ,Th−1]].
Let P = (P,Q,F,V−1) be the OL-display corresponding to the πL-divisible OL
-module G1,h−1, so that P = D(G1,h−1) and Q = V D(G1,h−1) with F and V−1 as given in the definition of D(Gm,n). Let S ∈ C, and let SpecA ⊆ S be an open affine subset of S. By Grothendieck-Messing theory (cf. [Mes72]), πL-divisible OL-modules over AliftingG1,h−1correspond to s.e.s.
0−→ M −→ P⊗OL˘ A−→ N −→0
of A-modules lifting the Hodge filtration
0−→ Q
πLP −→ P
πLP −→ P
Q −→0. Since
Q
πLP =
V D(G1,h−1)
πLD(G1,h−1) =
hV e0, . . . ,V eh−1i
hπLe0, . . . , πLeh−1i =
hπLe0,e1, . . . ,eh−1i
hπLe0, . . . , πLeh−1i
,
the above condition is equivalent to
M mAM =
Q
πLP =
he1, . . . ,eh−1i
hπLe1, . . . , πLeh−1i
Applying Nakayama’s lemma, we see thatM must be of the form
he1+t1πLe0, . . . ,eh−1+th−1πLe0i
for somet1, . . . ,th−1∈ A. ApplyingVh−1
to the s.e.s.
0−→ he1+t1πLe0, . . . ,eh−1+th−1πLe0i −→ he0, . . . ,eh−1i −→ he0i −→0, (6.1)
we get the s.e.s.
0−→ h(e1+t1πLe0)∧· · ·∧(eh−1+th−1πLe0)i −→ he0˜, . . . ,e˜h−1i −→ he1˜, . . . ,e˜h−1i −→0
where
(e1+t1πLe0)∧ · · · ∧(eh−1+th−1πLe0)= e˜0−t1πLe˜1−t2πLe˜2− · · · −th−1πLe˜h−1.
Let us rewrite (6.1) as follows:
0−→ hf1, . . . , fh−1i
ρ
−→ he0, . . . ,eh−1i
τ −
→ hg0i −→0 fi 7→ ei+tiπLe0
e0 7→ g0
ei 7→ −tiπLgi, i ,0.
Applying∨, we get the s.e.s.
0−→ hg∨0i τ ∨
−−→ he0∨, . . . ,e∨h−1i ρ ∨
−−→ hf1∨, . . . , fh∨−1i →0
where
(τ∨
g0∨)(ei)= g∨0(τei)=
g0∨(g0)= 1, ifi= 0,
g0∨(−tiπLg0) =−tiπL, ifi, 0,
(ρ∨ei∨)(fj)= e∨i (ρfj)= e∨i (ej +tjπLe0) =
1, ifi = j, 0, ifi , j.
So the above s.e.s. is the same as
0−→ he∨0−t1πLe∨1− · · · −th−1πLe∨h−1i −→ he
∨
0, . . . ,e
∨
h−1i −→ he
∨
1, . . . ,e
∨
Therefore we have a commuting diagram
(Mh)0≈ SpfOL˘[[T1, . . . ,Th−1]]
(LTh)0≈SpfOL˘[[t1, . . . ,th−1]]
Vh−1 22
∨

(Mh)0 ≈SpfOL˘[[S1, . . . ,Sh−1]]

which shows that Vh−1 induces an isomorphism from (
LTh)0 to (Mh)0 since the duality map∨: LTh→ Mhclearly does.
Corollary 6.1.2. The mapVh−1 : LT
h → Mhinduces an isomorphism h−1
^
: (LTh)m → (Mh)(h−1)m
for anym∈Z.
Proof. We recall the definition of the mapθ : D× → E×. Using the above embed-dings of D× andE×intoGLh(Lh), we haveθ(φ) = (detφ)(φ−1)T.
Letm∈Z. Fix someφ ∈D×with val(φ) = m, then
val(θ(φ))= vL(det(θ(φ))) = vL det(detφ)(φ−1)T
= vL((detφ)h−1) = (h−1)vL(detφ)= (h−1)m.
So the action of φinduces an isomorphism from(LTh0)0to (LTh0)m, and the action
ofθ(φ) induces an isomorphism from(Mh0)0to(Mh0)(h−1)m.
By Proposition 5.2.1, we have the following commutative diagram:
(LTh0)0
Vh−1
/
/
φ
(Mh0)0
θ(φ)
(LTh0)m Vh−1 //(M 0
h)(h−1)m
where the top map is an isomorphism by Proposition 6.1.1. HenceVh−1
induces an
isomorphism from (LTh0)m to (Mh0)(h−1)m, as desired.
Proposition 6.1.3. For anyn ≥ 0,m,n∈Z, each connected component of (LThn)m is mapped isomorphically onto some connected component of(Mhn)(h−1)m under the mapVh−1
